The world is full of obvious things which nobody by any chance ever observes.

Written from the perspective of what we can assume is an autistic teenage boy, this is a story of Christopher's quest to investigate the death of a neighborhood dog. Throughout his journey, we find him pushing his limits, and we find ourselves falling in love with his simple character.

I like when it rains hard.

It sounds like white noise everywhere,

which is like silence, but not empty.

Though Christopher tells us, "This will not be a funny book." We can still manage to find humor in his predicaments. This book will make you think, make you laugh, and if you are a sap like me (or pregnant?) probably make you cry as well. A book with such depth of emotions is always a good read, isn't it?

I like dogs.

You always know what a dog is thinking.

It has four moods. Happy, sad, cross and concentrating.

Also dogs are faithful and they do not tell lies because they cannot talk.
